I love your senryu my dear friend Anne Lise. A brilliant idea on how you give importance to punctuation in life through your excellent poem. Thank you so much for sharing and your very inspiring and wonderful comment on my poems last night. Belated happy Mother's Day. God bless you and your family always! love lots, Leonora

Very inventive! I liked the way you make the punctuation "come to life". I recall watching an audiotape that was literally all about the history of punctuation, but told in a comical way. These little observations are always fun...

What you have here is something which gives me a smile and an opportunity for a very deep breath. Thank-you for your last comment, by the way. It made me feel appreciated. I am here in Eastern Daylight Time, far away from you. However, I feel thankful for your lovely poetry. The world is wonderfully remarkable in that we can use these tools to share wonderful thoughts! Thanks.
